- I'll admit it, I have a little addiction when it comes to Dash products. However, I bought the Dash Mini Pocket Sandwich Maker last year and never bothered to try it out. Candidly, I wasn't expecting much. So how does it perform? Watch the video...

I still have my pocket sandwich maker from the 80’s. Charlie Brown & Snoopy heads. LOL We still use it!
I used to have one like it years ago. I found that cutting off the crust of the bread for a better seal.
I like the burnt cheese too. When I make a grilled cheese I make it ‘inside out’ and throw shredded cheese on the outside and crisp it up. That looks like it would be great at an office for a snack!
There is a Burger joint (or 2) in the Sacramento,CA. area that is famous for its burgers with
"cheese skirts" (overflowing crispy griddled cheese).
They're called Squeeze Inn. They'd be right up your alley! I used to go pretty regularly when I lived there...
I'm thinking "Maillard reaction" for the win.
The omelet reminds me of an episode of Good Eats. Alton cooked bacon and eggs in a waffle maker. I've been doing that ever since. Fry up a few slabs of bacon in the waffle iron. Then throw in some eggs and cheese which soaks up and residual bacon grease and basically cleans the waffle iron. Add some "syrup" - delicious!
That sounds really good!!!
@@suethompson2969 - it is. I just had it again the other day. 🙃
I have a sandwich maker from years ago. If you trim the crusts to fit the unit it’ll close alittle easier. It also came with a ‘recipe’ for apple pie. Two slices of bread and apple pie filling. The ingredients are endless. Have fun.
"Why can't the recipes I work so hard on, turn out ...." Because you are applying all the lessons you learned from those previous failures. Thanks for the interesting video.
💜
A good grilled cheese needs butter on outside to make it really good❣️
Mayonnaise*
Aussie here, jaffle maker/iron, toasted sandwhich/toastie maker. They usually come double sided, sometimes with four sandwich places. You can get standard or deep dish versions. They're already non-stick but I recommend buttering your bread on the outside too. We fry eggs and bacon, omletts, sweet and savoury toasties, you can use sheets of puff pastry in them. Tortillas work better in the double sided machines.
You're only limited by your imagination.
Very true
Just got mine via the link..noticed the blue color is 6 bucks more than the red color. Thanks so much..I live alone and look forward to this.
I just sent one to my daughter. She has 3 kids and they all like different things. She might think I am crazy when she gets it but I think she will love it! Thanks for another great video. I love those Mission brand low carb tortillas too!
I'm addicted to dash stuff. I have their mini 8in skillet in the truck, the egg cooker, the egg bite maker, all 3 mini products, the personal ice cream maker, the waffle bowl maker, the pie maker, the omelet maker and the kettle. I got the mini oven for my truck but it was junk so I tossed it to Goodwill. I may have a few I missed. I'm looking for the oven thing that looks like a skillet. I love their stuff.
Char Trucker But do you USE all your stuff ?
@@BethyKable that is the thing. Most is still in boxes because I never took it on the truck. I have shelves in my hallway with my appliances because my kitchen was so poorly laid out. No storage. We got hit with Hanna and my house caught fire. Kitchen burned. New kitchen is almost done and I have all these cool appliances and now will have great storage and plenty of counter space and outlets. On the truck usually I have to cook on the floor. I often just do the bare minimum to get by. My main staples there are my 3qt instant pot, my mini waffle and my 8 in dash skillet.
Char Trucker Good luck with that.....glad you survived Hanna and will set up in a new BIGGER place too,
I purchased an Ovenete 3 plate set (waffle, pocket sandwich and grill) I figured 3 in 1 good deal and takes up less space. Love the idea of using Mission too! Thank you for all you do!
props for Evil Dead top.
Gotta love a lil bit of Ash!
Thanks for that. I just bought one yesterday, and today I looked at it with buyer’s remorse but now I’m looking forward to trying it.
I need to play around with mine some more. So many ideas, so little time. 😉
I got a Dash mini pocket sandwich maker for Christmas, and I’m excited to try it out! Thank you for your review!
The Dash Egg Bite Maker is cool too. We are adapting to ours and really love it. Lots of fun!! Thanks...
We had pocket maker growing up in the 80's. But it was twice the size. It worked as good as your video.
'80s* Why does no one know the proper way to abbreviate decades? :-P
Steve, just ordered my sandwich maker under your video so you should get credit. Thanks for all the good ideas. It will be great for me.
WOW this video actually surprised me. I was planning to give this a curiosity watch just to help the channel. You actually managed to read my mind.
I plan to get one of these now.
Does anyone else remember the old Sandwich makers we had back in the mod 80s? Those things were fun for 15 year old Blain to make grilled cheese sandwiches and canned soup for his family dinner.
This video and your attitude put a smile on my face. Thanks
I'm glad you did this. I have one just sitting in my cupboard and now I have an idea of my own to try!
Oh, dear -- looks like another new appliance I need for my kitchen! I'm not single, but my wife isn't keto, so oftentimes we cook different meals, so this is perfect for that! Thanks!
P.S. I already have the unopened Dash Mini Griddle in a box from an old Xmas gift. I might pull that out and experiment with it as well. :)
The griddle works nicely on my McGriddle recipe: th-cam.com/video/GZlhonvCh3Y/w-d-xo.html
@@SeriousKeto Oooh, thanks! :)
I am obsessed with kitchen appliances and gadgets! Thanks for these videos! 👍
I agree with ChickenParm152 that buttering the bread or tortilla would likely yield better results. I recall these from decades ago when I was a kid.. obviously a full sized sandwich maker not a dash mini. The other factor there was using thin sliced bread, not a regular thickness. Nice idea on the omelette .. never would have thought that would work out so well.
FWIW, I had this video in my morning notifications when I woke up today... So TH-cam is on the ball this morning, at least
It seems completely random lately. Basically, you can pretty much count on a video every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning. But it's good to know you got the notification on this one. 😉
You rock, Steve. Always enjoy your videos because you are so honest
Pam Beck That's what I think, too, Pam. So refreshing that Steve gives honest opinions with no hidden agenda. His channel is my favorite. Enjoy your day.
I bought the Dash Mini and the Dash mini Griddle last year when you were heavy into chaffles, but before that I had a Dash yogurt maker and a Dash Egg Cooker. They make great products! I also love the low-carb tortillas!
I sure do like their products.
You have no idea how timely this video is, I just bought one (not Dash though) at Wal-Mart, and was going to try it out this weekend, lol. I'd had a double sandwich maker handed down from my late mother in law and just passed it on to my daughter for her kids to use.
Glad I could help!
I had another brand years ago - it made two sandwiches at a time. Another way to use it would be to add pancake mix and add a breakfast sausage link in the middle for pigs in a blanket.
I do that with my corn dog maker... 😉
The hardest thing to give up for , ( even more than potato chips ) was sandwiches. I been using chaffles but I think this thing might be a winner
Great video love your enthusiasm when you try the stuff
This video has convinced me to buy this. Love Dash products as well. Safe slice mandoline is my absolute favorite.
A few years ago I had a different brand double size snack maker. For a time I made breakfast sandwiches using Bisquick. Later I used it to make my salmon cakes for the work work. Very convenient. 👍
I found a (new with sticker)Hamilton Beach sandwich maker at Goodwill for 3.99 and I'm using the Dash to make my bread and I'm having a time getting the bread to taste right. Hardheaded about not using store bread.. Gonna have to check you chaffle videos. Thanks for all you do. Just watched your video for 6 recipes for chaffles and number 5 is my next attempt. Thanks
I have a "Nostalgia" sandwich maker and I love doing these crazy sandwiches
I ordered a different brand "sandwich maker" a week ago because it was a great deal and the nostalgia got the best of me. Mostly I figured I'd only use it to force my nostalgia on my children like any good father 🤣 and figured they would have fun creating new sandwich ideas. I didn't even ponder using it for my own keto cooking so thanks for the perfectly timely video with ideas to start with!
I also recently got an electric pressure cooker for the first time this month andn I'm already loving it... I need to search your videos and see if you've done anything on these yet. But if you are looking for an amazing keto meal to make for a future video, I found a "copycat" keto version of Olive Garden's "Zuppa Toscana soup" using my pressure cooker. So very easy, quick and honestly as good and maybe even better than the "real" version. I'd love to see your spin on that though I assume you are already overloaded with ideas for new videos lol.
Oh my, I’ve been looking for something delicious like this 🤤😋
Thanks Steve
I've been using my sandwich maker for about 3 months making keto chaffle bread. But you gave me some more ideas on using it. Thanks
I use the mini-griddle to make a "chancake bun." 3/8 cup mozzarella, 1 tsp psyllium husk powder, 1/2 tsp baking powder, and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds on top before closing the lid. I let that go for 6-8 minutes and pull it out with a silicone spatula, which I also use to guide the mixture into the griddle from the measuring cup. Half the mixture makes one griddle-full, so I use two griddles at a time.
FWIW, I also toast the sesame seeds in the griddles separately, while the griddles are still hot.
Great video. The only thing missing was the Hot Dog Bun you've been promising. Summer's running out.....I NEED a hot dog soon!
I should have never mentioned the hot dog bun. Things haven't been going well.
@@SeriousKeto Sorry about that. Not so well here either. Waiting on Back surgery so my diet has changed big time so my vices have been removed from my stomach. I'll keep waiting. You are doing an awesome job btw!
I hope to try again today. I'm ready to give up on the current recipe. It's coming out too dense (though it might make a good Sicilian pizza crust). That's just a thought, not a promise. 😉
PS - Hope the back surgery goes well.👍
I got a panini maker in storage that I think needs to come out.
"Why can't the recipes I work so hard on, turn out ...." Mine don't either. I'm better off keeping it simple. Speaking of simple, have you tried making a tortilla pizza with those tortillas? All I do is par-bake a tortilla, add my favorites toppings and throw it back in the toaster oven. (no pan) I can't get low carb anything here in Baja but will make an exception every now and then and have a flour tortilla. They're 25 carbs ea., so not too bad. Enjoyed your demo!
Another great review.
I watch lots of TH-cam channels but never joined one until today. Yes, I am a member of this channel. The content is usually very good to excellent. I have to support content like that.
Thanks Steve.
Glad to have you here. 🙂
I use to have a sandwich maker we always buttered the bread.
We also would make pocket pancakes.. we put some bacon or sausage or ham in the well, pour some pancake batter in there and ta da! breakfast pancake pocket. We also use to do a chocolate waffle or even a chocolate cake batter and make little pocket cupcakes or aka laval cakes..
You'd probably have to test it out but if it works then I'll definitely be buying 1 of these.. as I am a single gal so I just cook for myself. I have a dash waffle maker and pancake griddle on the way to me soon. The other appliance I want to get is the Instant Pot Vortex Air Fry oven..
I’ll definitely try a lava cake. I bet I could just use the batter from my recent Nutella waffle video. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@SeriousKeto Probably Steve might work or even some Lily's baking chips in any flavor! Good luck
Thank you! Pancake batter - I use Carbquik trying this ASAP!
I love Dash products. In your video you mentioned that you did not know when it was finished. You said "it's been three minutes....." at that very moment the little blue light went off (3:10 / 11:47). This light is not very bright and on my own dash, I have to either turn off the lights or cup my hands over the top to see the light (which can be dangerous with the heat and all). LOL. Love you videos! Would love to see you do more "plant-based" videos!
The light going off means that it's ready to use. The light being on means the appliance is heating up. Once the light turns off, it means it's up to the temperature it heats up to. When you are cooking something in any Dash product for a while, the light will switch on and off multiple times, telling you when it is heating and when it isn't.
I'm at the beginning of my Keto journey and I'm building my Keto Kitchen must haves. I purchase all my Dash items directly from them. I have the mini waffle, mini griddle, mini pie, mini Bundt, mini waffle bowl and one of their air fryers... I love each gadget for the countless ways I can use them.
Dash products are easy to become addicted to. 🙂
Most excellent recipes. Making me hungry. Keep on keeping on.
Great ideas. I used my Dash mini griddle today to make breakfast burritos. I set a small ramekin on the bottom and added bacon grease and bacon bits, then added an egg and scrambled it as it cooked. I put the cooked egg into a low carb tortilla with cheese, then buttered the sides of the tortilla and put it in the griddle and put the top down. I turned it halfway through, since the bottom seems to cook faster. Great meal for a lone keto person.
Great idea!
Seeing your review I can't wait to get a Dash Mini Pocket Maker. I think I'll try a sweet version with cream cheese and my homemade sf strawberry jam.
Don't feel bad. I have the dash mini waffle maker and the ice cream maker. But my ice cream maker gets plenty use 🤗 great for portion control.
One of these days, I'll bust out the ice cream maker again. Our freezer is just too full right now...
@@SeriousKeto oh I eat mines right away 🤣 the mini bucket is perfect
I’m so glad you try these things out for us! 💕
Thank you.
Use the pancake mix and a sausage link
I think your Dash addiction is back! : ) Great Video. The idea of making a pocket meal is very appealing. Great way to use leftovers too. I sure wish they made those little appliances with ceramic non-stick coating though. I can't use teflon products with pet birds in the house. I will have to come up with an alternative method.
@@rw3687 I couldn't find a Greenlife waffle maker, just a sandwich maker which isn't what I am looking for. I have a ceramic Belgian waffle maker but it is too thick to use for sandwich bread substitute.
Love this guy. Is he a radio personality (Casey Kasem comes to mind) that voice!
Thank you. 😊
YUMMY!😀 Thanks for sharing your ideas Steve!😀👍 Have a blessed week!💜🙏☮🌞🎶
I love this video. Thanks again, Steve!
Apple pie/zucchini? Great idea. I have so much summer squash in the garden this year, I've been stuffing and frying the blossoms.
Side note: This video was released "ten minutes ago" according to TH-cam, yet there are comments from yesterday. I'm confused
My channel members get to see videos prior to their scheduled post dates.
Jumped right in and ordered one.
The blue light means it's STILL heating up. When the light turns off, it's ready. The instructions are pretty clear on this.
From there it just indicates power cycling as it hits max and min temp. It has nothing to do with when a food is “done”. You can grab an IR thermometer and test for yourself.
@@SeriousKeto That's not what I said at all lol.
Thanks! Found this for $1 at Walmart. Great ideas!!
That's a great find!
Thanks for the share I just bought one! Looking forward to experimenting!
It’s a fun little gadget. 🙂
@@SeriousKeto makes me feel like a kid again I'm glad its dimlle cherry pie with powder sugar was dessert! Pepper Jack with pico de galo sandwich yummy. Breakfast scrambled eggs , pico de galo and pepper Jack! I love it!
I LOVE mouth burn. But NOT hot mouth burn (like jalapeno peppers). After all, pain is not a flavor.
Still, you've inspired me again. Gonna have an omelette for dinner. Not sure I'm gonna wait for it to cool off, though. 😅
Love that saying “ Pain is not a flavor.” 💕
I love your channel so much. Your videos always make me smile! Thanks for all you do :)
You are so kind
I have the original sandwich maker from the 90s. Still use it occasionally. Neat!!
What's old is new again. 😉
I use to mash up a small banana with peanut butter and put on sandwich bread. Add it to the sandwich maker and I think this has been the best sandwich I have made in it.
that sounds tasty.
Ooh zucchini apple pie! Great idea!
OK. I purchased the bread slicer you recommended, have my breadmaker set up, and patiently waiting for your improved bread recipe. Can't wait! BTW An epic fail: I purchased the Nostaltia brand sandwich maker from HSN to save money. Bad purchase - the pockets are not very deep, so it was a total mess. Should have listened to you about Dash.
i got 2 Dash chuffle makers because of your reviews.. Love Da Dash!
I used to make these with ground beef and gravy, to make hand pies. it also makes great egg sandwiches.
Also if you spread butter on the outsides before you cook it is the bomb.
I will have to try that next time. Thanks!
This weekend, I got addicted to beef dip sandwiches. I'd bought some thin-cut strip steaks, and cooked them sous vide. It turns out they're prefect, along with a "chancake bun" and a slice of havarti. I pour the jus right out of the bag into a ramekin and while the "bun" is toasting, I finished the strip steaks with a weed torch. Sandwich assembles in a couple minutes with a little Chosen Foods avocado mayo. It was even more awesome than I'd hoped.
Love this video. I have to try this product. Thanks Steve Jennifer 🤩
This looks like a neat little gadget! Very cool!
Wow Steve these all look awesome,I dont have the dash mini in this but I do have a sandwich maker ( if I can find it lol ) and I will try that, thanks so much!!!
Thanks for this particular video. I live alone and have lost interest in cooking for one. I want quick and easy
Sherie Black I thinks fits the bill for quick and easy. Plus it’s a great way to make pockets out of just about any leftovers.
I’m getting one of those
Thank you for another great video
I think I'm going to have some fun it.
I like the way your mind works 😊
I have been curious about this little gadget, and thought it would be a superfluous addition. Now, you have me thinking! Thank you! I did impulse buy the Dash MyPint ice-cream maker, and it's still in the box. Do you have one? Any recipes? Ideas?
Thanks again for entertaining education!
I use the ice cream maker in my sour cream lemon sherbet video: th-cam.com/video/ciHhd4L_G_M/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the review. Might have to get one of those. Just picked up some hatch chili’s didn’t think about adding to an omelet. Thanks for that.
I put some on a BLT last night night. I love, Love, LOVE me any roasted New Mexican chiles.
I do not think I will be getting one (I would need something larger for my family), but I still enjoyed your video. Can't wait till you get to their ice-cream maker. Thank you!
I'm pretty sure I used their ice cream maker in the sour cream lemon sherbet video: th-cam.com/video/ciHhd4L_G_M/w-d-xo.html
Who knew? My granddaughter heads to college in August. Great for late night study snacks.
I wish the Dash gadgets had existed back when I was in college.
Got my Dash Mini Pocket Sandwich Maker! Love it!
Expect more recipes in the future from me that use it. 😉
Serious Keto I’ll be watching!
Where's the butter, man? BUTTER!
I have a larger dash round griddle. Perfect for scrambled eggs!!!
I have that too. 🙂
try the nostalgia mini sandwich maker i think it is much better and more efficient and heats up faster!!!
Who doesn't LOVE Amazon!! :-D
I live an hour from a distribution center. It’s hard not to love same day Prime delivery.
Just got to say, no American Cheese? Also, try mayo on the outside of the bread and the inside.
Periodically, I'll make my own "American" cheese via the super melty cheese video I did. That's a great idea! That would be so oooey gooey in these.
Mayo FTW on grilled cheese.
Great ideas and will save me alot of time.
Thanks Steve.
Glad to help
That was fun! I enjoyed it! Thanks.
So glad!
Easy Philly Cheese Steak pockets....Steakumm meat(cooked of course)/ frozen pepper -onion blend / mozz / tsp pizza sauce.
Basically, I consider this my new way of "disposing" of leftovers.
Really expected it to be a flop. Pretty cool it's not.
I had a 4 "pocket" version back in the early 90's.☺ I used it for my toddler son to have "fun" foods in his lunch.
I think I may still have mine in the garage. 🤔
Do you also have the Dash mini pie maker and waffle bowl maker? I would love to see what you do with them.
I like most of the Dash products, but other than the heating plates, they are not the best products to keep clean. My problem with them is that grease tends to buildup under the plates and the only way to clean them is to take them apart, which may not be that easy for some. If Dash could make the plates removable for cleanup, or do a better seal around them, they would be perfect for me. I still would recommend them just remember to clean under the plates from time to time or that rancid smell might be coming from your Dash.
In my perfect world, Dash would create a 2 "chamber" cooker with interchangeable plates for waffle, griddle, waffle cup, sandwich, and Bundt cake (did I miss anything?). They would also have some sort of "run-off" channel for the oil/grease. I'd gladly pay a premium for such an appliance, but I think Dash realizes that they can just keep selling them as individual units to those of us who are Dash-addicted.
Review the Dash Pizelle maker please.
Light OFF means it's ready. Light ON means it's still heating up.
The light cycles on and off based on temperature. At least that’s what I saw testing it empty with an IR thermometer.
I have one of these. It works really well, from my understanding you are supposed to wait until the light goes off witch means it's ready to cook. Usually when I put the sandwich in the light comes back on so I wait for the light to come back on again. I have had for 1 or 2 years (don't remember which), this sandwich maker started my dash craze lol. Thank you for the tortilla idea! Looks pretty good! You just gained a subscriber! Very good review!
Try a very thinly sliced hot dog, a smidge of chili and some shredded cheese in the tortilla - works great :)
That sounds tasty.
I think I’m all set with this. Since it promotes me to eat sandwiches and I don’t buy 🍞 keto bread 🥖 or any type. Wish I could buy bread is my enemy , unfortunately 😌 Am impresses with the egg recipe. Love my dash waffle maker thou.
The dash egg shaped egg cooker makes a delicate steamed omelets. I'm single and it's easy peasy
Thanks for groovy video, now I can shop smart ;-)
Hail to the king. 😉
One of these was on my Christmas list, but I got the Dash Egg Bite Maker instead. Guess it will make keto food as well...
That's one of the rare Dash products I don't ever see myself owning.
Try a little mayo on the tortilla.
Add some shredded beef, cheese, green salsa.
Think steak and cheese mexican burrito.
You can thank me later lol.
I was planning on getting the dash griddle but I may get this one instead. I have 3 boys and I can see making pizza pockets and grilled cheese with this and the above. And your breakfast omlet idea.
Enjoyed your video.
Seriously I was just about to ask if you thought tortilla would work.... then you said was trying tortilla and my eyes lit up
And then you made that omelet sandwich... oh man I'm a happy man right now and definitely ordering one
I think if a person isn't keto, this gadget becomes even more fun. Still, I kinda regret that I let this sit in storage for so long...
@@SeriousKeto 🤫 good thing I'm actually low carb rather than technically keto.... I got some ideas brewing in my head
Thanks for sharing it made me want one👍
